Lake Santa Croce, the largest in the province of Belluno and the second in Veneto, is a natural lake formed by a landslide that closed the Val Lapisina blocking the descent of the Piave river towards Vittorio Veneto and creating the Sella del Fadalto. Located in the Alpago area, between the municipality of the same name and Ponte nelle Alpi, on the border with the province of Treviso, it is a mirror of water that reflects the Alpago and Nevegal mountains on its crystalline waters. The villages along the banks still retain examples of the typical architecture of terraced houses with roofs in stone slabs, straw and marsh reeds.

Located in the Alpago area, between the municipality of the same name and Ponte nelle Alpi, on the border with the province of Treviso, it is a stretch of water whose crystal-clear waters reflect the Alpago mountains and Nevegal. The villages along the banks still preserve examples of the typical architecture of stepped houses with roofs made of stone slabs, straw and marsh canes.
